    Xorg catches segmentation fault on boot after installing fglrx on 13.10

    Hello this is a continuation of an other thread but I openend a new one to be more specific (the old one: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2198047)

    I couldn't get any fglrx working on any distro newer then 13.04. In the old thread I was on 14.04 but since it isn't released yet I wanted to be sure that my problem and my debuging info is not influenced by an unstable build.
    My graphics card is a Mobility Radeon HD 5650
    Here is a step by step description of what I did:

    1. Installed 13.10 and only made an apt-get upgrade

    2. Compared the version of fglrx and fglrx-updates (both the same)

    3. I installed fglrx and ran "amdconfig --inital -f the output is here:
    Code:

    4. Reboot

    5. First I saw just a purple screen.
    Then a TTY was popping up but just for a second.
    Then there was just a black screen. CTRL + ALT+F2 and any other F Key weren't getting me to a TTY.
    CTRL+ALT+Print+REISUB was working.

    Re: Xorg catches segmentation fault on boot after installing fglrx on 13.10

    http://support.amd.com/en-us/kb-arti...easenotes.aspx
    This are the release notes of 13.12 and if you scroll down it says "ATI Mobility Radeon™ HD 5000 Series" in "AMD Mobility Product Family Compatibility".

    So the release notes say the card IS supported.

    Also, there is no downloadable file on the site your link refers to.

    Re: Xorg catches segmentation fault on boot after installing fglrx on 13.10

    it does state that only 12.04.02 and 13.04 are supported, no support for 13.10 - might need to wait til April when 14.04 comes out then another few months for AMD to hopefully have support for it.

    This is a bug. And it doesn't seem to fix anytime soon...

    I think if I want to use Ubuntu 14.04 when it came out, the only option for me is open source driver. I hope there will be no heating issue which drive me to proprietary driver like when I tried it in 12.04.

    I have Lubuntu 13.10 installed on my pc and installed fglrx using synaptic package manager. Works like a charm. I can also remember using the driver from AMD website as well and it worked. Driver downloaded from AMD was amd-driver-installer-catalyst-13-4-x86.x86_64.zip and still have a copy of it.

    Are you using Mobility Radeon HD 5000 series?

    This is what lspci gives me. I am using two video cards for my triple monitor setup. As you can see the different BusId for each device

    Re: Xorg catches segmentation fault on boot after installing fglrx on 13.10

    I have the same problem with my Acer Aspire 8943G and AMD Mobility Radeon HD 5850 sometime from 12.11 if I remember correctly. The last working Ubuntu version with fglrx I was able to install was Ubuntu GNOME 13.04 with fglrx-updates from repository (plain fglrx from repository, nor any version from the official AMD website, did not work - it hangs the PC before login screen appears). The same happens with all newer Ubuntu and fglrx versions including Ubuntu 14.04, its fglrx versions from repository and the latest fglrx version 14.1 beta 1 from AMD website. The drivers in 13.04 are buggy, though (virtual TTY shows only blank screen and GNOME 3 often hangs - I have no idea if this is related to GNOME or fglrx but I suspect the latter is the cause).

    I have only seen the "fglrx(0): Failed to open CMMQS connection." error in xorg.filesafe.log from Ubuntu 14.04 made from recovery mode when I was trying to run X at least in failsafe mode with fglrx installed (unsuccessfully, did freeze as usual). Normal xorg log files list absolutely no error, only a bunch of NULL values at the end (probably the buffers weren't flushed properly and the error entry would normally be there). ALT+SysRq+REISUB is absolutely worthless here.

    After how many, 15 months? you are the first person experiencing exactly the same issue as I do. It makes me sad noone has a solusion yet or even cares.

    Having Core i5 inside my laptop, I have an Intel+AMD combo too. However, the integrated GPU is disabled all the time (VGA set to Discrete in BIOS) as it only caused problems and worked never since I bought the computer in 2011. It would make things a lot easier if the power consumption was lower (during courses at university or travels home) and the fact that the fglrx driver worked never since I got the laptop makes me totally bored and yes, I'm sick of it even more now. As an IT student I can't imagine working in a company that successful, not being able to produce ONE SINGLE working driver ever since 2008 when only I experienced no fglrx bugs at all with my ATI Radeon HD 2400 AGP. What a shame...
